Nipawin mayor by-election set for October

Voters in Nipawin will held to the by-election polls on October 18 to choose a new mayor, following the resignation of Rennie Harper last month.

Nominations start on August 29 and will be open until September 13 at 4 p.m.

Harper resigned in July, having held the post since the 2016 general election and just before town council was to receive a report commissioned into her conduct as mayor.

The resignation prompted the town to say the results would be kept private as she was no longer with the municipality.
